Goorambat Art Silos...
See photo below...
At the Goorambat silo complex there are three painted silos, two short ones sitting back to back and one tall concrete one standing on its own. The three silos were painted in two stages one year apart.
Renowned Australian artist Jimmy DVate was chosen to paint the Goorambat silos beginning with the tall concrete silo in 2018. Jimmy has once again chosen to feature an endemic threatened species, this time choosing Milli a Barking Owl who lives at the Healesville Sanctuary in Badger Creek, Victoria.
The Barking Owl is now considered to be an endangered species and there is said to be only 50 breeding pairs currently living in the wild. A mural such as this and on such a grand scale will now hopefully bring to light the current peril of this magnificent bird.
Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.
